STILT GIRL by Lou Clyde
Izzy’s dream is to make it in New York, but ever since “the incident” at an unfortunate audition, her life has gone downhill. Her part-time job at a cleaning company barely pays the bills. When Izzy loses her spot on her friend’s couch, she resorts to squatting in an Airbnb condo she just cleaned, rationalizing that she’ll deep clean the place during her stay. Imagine Izzy’s surprise when Tina and Debi arrive from Atlanta, ready to celebrate their 5-years cancer free. Stilt Girl is an uplifting farcical comedy balancing optimism, acceptance, and unlikely friendships.
